stick into? or stick in

Hi!
I have two questions, and hope you can answer and help me.
Can I use stick into or stick in in the following sentence?
The chewing gum stuck into / in his hair.
My another question is different. Can anyone tell me why I can �t download some wss from the today �s prontables? When I try to download them the system wants me to login again. Do you know why it is?
Thanks for your help in advance,

Thanks for your fast reply.
I understand why you wrote it in passive, but I wanna use it in active form in my sentence. Do you think I can do? |

I think Alex meant to write "stuck" in both sentences.
Also, if you don �t want to use the passive, you would say "The chewing gum stuck to his hair", which has a somewhat different meaning. |

I would usually say "He got gum in his hair" or "He �s got gum stuck in his hair" or "The gum got stuck in his hair." Or if someone else put it there, "She stuck gum in his hair." |
